I had the misforune to play halo yeaterday i have to say that is without a doubt the worse FPS i've ever ever played.

Though the graphics are good the controlls were fiddly, the eneimies could gun you down before you got near them. Your guns was poo.

I played for a good 10 mins to expeierenced the game and within ten minutes, i know whether a game is any good for not for me. This isn't.

*Me feel an arguement coming on*

Have you ever completed a game? Or does you're short attention prevent you?

I've completed loads of Games redient evil 1 & 2, dennis on the Amiga, Streets of rage 1 & 2, sonic 1, medal of honour 1&2. the list could go on. i plaued it and it wasn't really to my liking, if i had to go through loads of level using different analogue sticks for looking od moving foward and side stepping it would be very annoying.

So you don't use the analgue sticks for FPs on the N64? Or the PS2?

You use the digital pad all the time do you?

Also, the controls are customisible. You can set them up how you want.

But obviously after playing the game for such a long time, you knew that.

i must admit i wasn't overly impressed at first. But you can't just give a game ten minutes. Once you get used to the controls you will find that it is pretty enjoyable. It doesn't have the same classic feel of goldeneye or the likes but is still a very good game and I think it is uniformed and unfair of you to criticise it of the back of ten minutes on a console that you are unfamiliar with

I thought Metal Gear Solid 2 was rubbish.
I read the box and I knew it would be crap.

And the controls are stupid and the whole thing smells like tv

The thing is, it's not designed to be instantly playable like a Football game say. Certainly not in a busy store because the atmosphere isn't right. Especially not with a que of forming behind you, and a 9 year old holding the second pad, pretending he's controlling the enemies coming at you.
